Daily Achievements!

Hi forum friends! I've decided to start a new thread on Daily Achievements because I suffer from depression as one of my mental illness and that means it's often hard for me to remind myself that I do actually things in my day, no matter how small they may be. I thought forumites could post here a daily achievement or 2 so we can remind ourselves that we have done something good each day. It can be as big or as small as you like. Just as long as what you did makes you proud and happy.

I'm tagging @roses @Bow @Shaz51 @BPDSurvivor @saltandpepper @Daisydreamer @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member @TideisTurning @Former-Member @frog @Sans911 @outlander

in case you might be interested as well as anyone else who wants to join in!

So, to get this discussion started, I'll post my achievements today which are:

- I had a gorgeous cup of tea which helped me deal with some anxiety I was experiencing;

- I paid my car registration which was due today.


See what I mean about achievements? Mine may seem small or irrelevant to some people but to me, because I have depression, these are actually major in the scheme of my life. I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with.

Hi @TAB
I’m proud that you caught up with your Tafe lecturer despite dreading it. Well done! I also called Tafe today about my scholarship application. Turns out that I have to undergo careers counselling to make sure I’m the right person for the mental health course despite doing volunteer work in that area. Not thrilled about this!

Hi @Shaz51
Great work on all of your achievements! The whipper snipper must have been expensive. I just had an old memory of my Jack Russell terrier always barking at my dad whenever he tried to start his as she didn’t like the sound of it. It was funny but obviously not to my dog.
Keep it up!

Hi everyone Todays Acheivements so far are having a hot shower,going to an appointment even though I didnt want to,drinking two cups of coffee when I got home as a form of self care,also watching a self help video as form of self care, might need to work out something for lunch now and then some more mindfullness music or something like that to keep my thoughts and mind in a calm space,also washed a load of clothes. some phone calls need to be made a little later on.
